With the greater than ever use of semi-pro and consumer interconnect products the importance of the humble adapter has increased significantly. Inevitably this leads to the odd hiccup in mating two products or cables together which is why Canford offers a wide range of audio and video adapters (or adaptors as our US cousins would say) that should solve a lot of problems. Canford also stock suitable cables and patch cords for these products.
Roger Lucas, one of the UK’s top sound recordists, has been using Panamic boom poles from as far back as he can remember and rates them as the best in the business.

He is about to put his Panamics through another gruelling shoot in the Syrian Desert.
In July, a multi-ability team of disabled and non-disabled adults climbed Kilimanjaro accompanied by a film crew. This was a very real challenge - on average, ten climbers die each year while trying to reach the summit.
